I just flashed Juggs 4.1 and flashed the mega blue darkside theme on top. the messaging app kept forcing closed and wouldnt send so i used titanium to uninstall it and reinstall the messaging app from the ics theme i had on prev rom. it works fine but the icon came out of the dock and I cant figure out how to get it back. now my dock only has 3 icons in it. Also, i am trying to figure out if i flash the modified TW launcher with 5 icons if the theme will still work. i'll show my appreciation by hitting "thanks
{EDIT} I found the solution. I used titanium to back up the tw launcher and uninstall it. then i re installed it with titanium and selected "app only"
I still am curious about the modified TW launcher though and if the theme will still work. thanks

Chances are that cyan would put it in his RC3 release.. but i guess you would have to find someone who ripped the update from they phone and post it here..
Couldn't you just take the .apk out of the nightly .zip and replace your /system/app/ADWLauncher.apk with it?
I mean, I guess everything might not work, since he does put additional stuff in the Cyan Tweaks area, but in general I would think it should be fine.
You can download the apk that works with CM6 from here:

I have been to that site but I wasnt aware one of those links where the correct download. Which is the correct download for CM6.
Also sorry if this was the wrong forum and Ill download a nightly and see if I can rip it.
Thanks, for the help everyone.
I unziped a nightly and tried that.. lol WOW! I almost really screwed things up. So I tried installing it overtop its current and that wouldnt work. So I uninstalled ADW using titanium and bamn nothing was working.. kinda. Menue stoped working back kept taking me to odd things like the phone home didnt work search worked but i couldnt get to settings to search for an app to get back to titanium to work. Holding down home worked to get recent places and it just so happened all my recent places where the toolz I needed to get back to where i needed to be. Lol that was a close one.
Currently 1.1.2 is installed now and the only issue is that its not integrated into CM6 RC2. I mean instead of hitting one settings tab and then clicking ADW settings its now hitting menu and you got your settings or your ADW settings. No biggy. The wallpaper force closes sometimes when I tried to change it but its not persistant and can be worked around.
I'm running the stock deodexed 3.29 but want to try out some of the other ROMs out there.
I plan on doing a nand backup and a Titanium backup for my apps and app settings.
But, is there any way for me to save my homescreen settings and then apply them again once I've restored all my apps?
Titanium should backup all your icons and widgets as part of the launcher data. What launcher are you using?
Note that normal widgets can't be restored properly. They will show up in the right place, but it will be an error message instead of the actual widget, and you will have to remove and re-add them. I believe this is an Android limitation. The special LauncherPro widgets don't have this issue.
I'm just running stock Sense launcher, save for a couple Rosie/lockscreen mods.
It's just a pain in the butt to go back in and re-add all my quick contacts and icons. I swear I did a Titanium restore before when going from 3.26 to 3.29 deodexed, and it did not restore anything on my home screens (it went to full OEM stock homescreen setup). Not sure what I'm missing then.
It should be the [Desktop] HTC Sense option, IIRC. You might have to reboot after restoring to get it to show up.

Hmmm. It's currently backed up so I'm assuming it was last time I restored also. Well I'll give it a shot again and see what happens. Worst case, it takes me an extra few minutes to set things up.
It's a system app, so if you were just restoring user apps+data, it would've missed it. Other than that, I'm not sure. It's been a while since I used the stock Sense launcher and had to restore it.
Ok thanks.

I updated my ADW Launcher to the newest version and now it keeps crashing. I also selected to always launch with it so i cant clear the data to use Sense and uninstal ADW.
What do i do??????
What rom are you running? Stock? Rooted? How long in between crashes?

You might check out the ADW thread in the Android section (not individual phone sections). The issue is known but they haven't got around to fixing it yet. Give them a day or two and I'm sure it will be dealt with.
Of course that's assuming you're running 6.1 (not sure if it happens with 6.0).
the easiest way to do it would be to find a flashable .zip of adw to apply in recovery to replace the one crashing or just take the apk from cyanogenmod rom (any rom) and push it to system/app in recovery... so when you reboot you will get to pick wich launcher to start by default again... that has happened to me several time but with rosie launcher (sense) when trying to change the looks of it and thats how i fix it every time xD
Has anyone tried renaming or removing the stock launcher to disable it?

easiest thing is to install a new launcher, say, ADW or LauncherPro or Zeam or whatever, (I hear Trebuchet is out) and then enable that new launcher as Default... and by doing that you disable the stock launcher.
But never ever disable or uninstall or kill a launcher unless you have another one waiting in the wings to take over.
launcher is nothing more than an apk

I have the Tablet version of Go Launcher installed but I wanted to disable the stock launcher so that it isn't running in the background with Go Launcher just running over top of it.
Edit: I used Titanium Backup to freeze the stock launcher and after a reboot everything is fine. I'll probably end up renaming the Launcher.apk to Launcher.bak so that TiBu doesn't have to do the work.
I don't have any problems running another launcher. But remember you can't get access to the kindle stuff if you get rid of or disable the stock launcher. I have mine linked on my homescreen, so the stock launcher runs more like an app for me.
So first things first I am running Goldeneye 7.1 stock kernel. I wanted the new themed Google Keyboard in the apps and themes section and downloaded both the zip and the apk but since a stock Google keyboard comes with the rom as a system app the themed keyboard wouldn't show up, even by flashing the zip. I tried removing the google keyboard from system apps (it was called Latin.apk or something like that) and themed keyboard still gave me cannot download app already installed. I finally ran the zip of the rom on my PC with a program called APP Swapper, i took out Latin.apk and put in the themed keyboard, now it works but every time i restart the phone i keep getting a google keyboard foreclose error until i reinstall the themed keyboard apk again. And then its fine till the next reboot. Any ideas why this is happening? and any solutions? Thanks in Advance.

Hye i kinda lost you but its not a good idea to remove system apps. And try to avoid changing them too.. I have gotten many force closes that way. I believe if you place it in /data/app/ then it will just use it from there as a system app, overriding the original system app without breaking.
I haven't tried the themed keyboard myself but you should probably ask this in that thread. Do you know what his script does exactly?
